Re: Messed up Margins
Hard to tell without looking at the score. Have you tried unlocking the format (Cmd Shift U), and Optimise? You may have to to recreate the individual parts again.

Re: 2 bar repeat sign Sibelius First
Have you looked under Notations > Symbols > Repeats, or searched for Repeat 2 bars in the ribbon? Can't say for certain as I don't have Sibelius First, but it seems to have been available in older versions. May have been nobbled along with many others in the current version of course.

Re: Appending Measures no longer possible
I don't have the latest version, so not sure, but it sounds like a bug may have been introduced. You may have to go the official community forum on the Avid site to get an answer and/or log this issue as a bug.

Re: Shadowed notes
Not sure what you mean by 'shadowed', I haven't come across this behaviour before. Perhaps if you could post a screenshot that would help find out what's going on. A score would be better (you can attach it as a zip file), but unless you convert it to Sib 7.5 I can't look at it. Firstly though, does...

Re: Retrieving A Deleted Score
If the notes were created in the same session you may be able to use Undo (Ctrl/Cmd Z) repeatedly to get them back. Use carefully (slowly) though as I've had Sibelius crash and restart when I've done 'too many' quick undos. Otherwise, have you looked in your Backups folder? The frequency and locatio...

Re: Pedal markings have to be made much easier
I'm sure you're right, but sadly Sibelius developers are highly unlikely to answer your requests on this forum, This is an unofficial (despite its name) user forum, and is very quiet these days. There are only a few of us still around here, trying to help where we can. As a mainly wind player this i...

Re: Capotasto (Capo)
There doesn't seem to be a specific symbol for capo(tasto) in Sibelius. Best I can think of is if the notation for cello is anything like that for guitar (forgive my ignorance), you could fake it with a dashed line and/or text. Something like this: Capo I.png or this: Capo II.png Select the dashed l...

Re: Changing shortcuts to "creating slashed grace notes"
If it's an acciacciatura you want this is under the Keypad (more notes) Tab or Category of Keyboard shortcuts. To change the defined shortcut / you need to Add and create a new shortcut set based on the standard set (which can't be edited). You should then be able to change the shortcut to whatever ...

Re: Midi files not displaying chord names-Yamaha
In any case, chord symbols aren't part of the MIDI standard, and Sib 6.2 won't export them to a MIDI file. If the Yamaha has a way of interpreting chord names from a guitar or keyboard part it may worth using the Sibelius plugin 'Realize chord symbols' to create such an instrument and re-export to M...

Re: Loading newly created instruments into old scores ..
You can 'save' new (or edited) instruments for general use by exporting a House Style or saving as a Manuscript paper. You'd then Import the House Style into existing score, or use the Manuscript Paper when setting up new scores. This is from the Sibelius 7.5 Reference guide: 2.6 Edit Instruments 2....

Re: Having trouble with Version 7.5.1 Update
There seems to be a strange 'silent install' procedure for upgrading to 7.5.1 from 7.5.0. I found this when logged onto my Avid account. The link is here: https://avid.secure.force.com/pkb/articles/en_US/How_To/Sibelius-7-5-1-Silent-Install-Procedure Not sure if this is how I did it originally, or w...

Re: staff spacing
The "justify page when..." setting bit is in Appearance > Engraving rules > Justify staves when page is at least xx% full. You should then find you have more room at the bottom of the page to move things around a bit. To move system staffs up/down I find it quickest to select any bar in the lower sy...

Re: Issues Exporting Audio
Totally agreed. There are some known issues with certain Mac OS's and Sibelius versions, neither of which I have, nor the behaviour you describe. If you can't get an answer here, you're best advised to head over to the official Avid forum / helpdesk, where you have more options.

Re: Issues Exporting Audio
Have you tried just sliding the volume levels on the unwanted instruments to 0 in the mixer before exporting audio? That's what I nornally do when wanting to isolate parts rather than using the mute or solo buttons. If the resulting volume level is too low, you can 'normalise' them with something li...
